| I’m not selling molasses I’m not pushing tea |
| I don’t appeal to the masses and they don’t appeal to me |
| I’m not peddling fiction I’m not packaging youth |
| I’ve got a predilection for the truth |
| BRIDGE #1 |
| I can’t stand it any longer I can’t suffer any more fools |
| I’m gonna keep on sharpening axes till I’ve got the sharpest tools |
| I can’t access information comin' down the mainframe |
| Those puerile incantations in couplets or quatrains |
| Watch it all run amok now watch those idiots score |
| Till you can’t remember that they’re idiots any more |
| Watch that stain increasing spreading out across the earth |
| Till you can’t remember what anything is worth |
| BRIDGE #2 |
| I can’t stand it any longer I can’t listen to any more words |
| I’m gonna keep on sharpening axes till they cut right through this dirt |
| I can’t access information comin down the satellite beam |
| All I hear is psycho babble and I don’t know what it means |
| BRIDGE #1 (1st half) |
| VERSE #2 (1st half) |
| BRIDGE #2 (2nd half) |
| Sharpening axes (3 times) |
